I Wandered into Montecello Antiques...

Today I wandered into Montecello Antiques in Portland to get some ideas for fall crafts and home decor. They were having their fall preview event.

There were a lot of great displays from the various venders.

Truthfully, I'm not usually a huge fan of fall colors, but this grouping was pretty appealing.

Of course there were pumpkins everywhere but I thought these were the most original: Chenille, old patchwork and velvet.

 

I loved this: it was painted on a chalkboard surface.

I do like the white gourds and painted pumpkins. Can you see the paper leaves that they attached to a raffia vine? Quite cool.

It was a fun day - I got some ideas and a bit of enthusiasm for putting some fall elements into my home. Thank you very much for taking a peek at my blog. I hope you will return. -Derrith
